Jet Boating

New Zealand is synonymous with adventure and adrenaline. It’s a country known for delivering hair-raising, heart-pumping and breath-taking experiences, and Taupo is no exception. While there are plenty of different options that tick those boxes, one of our absolute favourite picks is jet boating. We’ve got our hands on the only jet boat company permitted to take you to the base of the mighty Huka Falls. This half hour of thrills, fun and excitement takes you along a beautiful river environment, lined with native bush, sheer rock cliff face and hot water streams. From the moment you step foot on the boat, you’ll be sitting on the edge of your seat – feeling the adrenaline flow through your system. The boat’s unique vantage point will have the best water level view of Huka Falls that you can find anywhere in the town. As the country’s most visited natural attraction, it’s an experience that you and your teammates will still be talking about when the next season rolls around. Having such an incredible experience to bond over will help you build even stronger bonds, meaning you’ll be ready to rumble for an even bigger year to come! Operating on the same stretch of Waikato River since 1990, you can expect an outstanding level of professionalism and safety (even if you do feel scared out of your brain for 99% of the time!!).

Group Dinners

If there is one thing that we’ve learnt in our time of organising end of season getaways, it’s that nothing brings a group together like a team dinner. While you could just round everyone up for a few wines at the local bar, we’ve got something a little more special in mind. We love a good feed almost as much as you love your sport, and that’s why we’ve gone ahead and organised a three-course dinner to kick off your first night away. This restaurant is somewhat of a local institution, known for its super fresh and seriously tasty selection of food. Just when you thought it couldn’t get any better, we’ll back it up the next night with another two-course meal for the team. This second spread promises to be just as tasty as the first, and the perfect opportunity to sit down together and get to know each other a little better off the field. It’s not a girls night without a few drinks, so we’ll have the bar team on standby ready to whip up your bevvie of choice too. It’s the simple moments like this that you’ll look back on for years to come and remember as your golden days!
